Blenheim Tri

Unlucky?

After falling ill at the National Aquathlon Championships in Tamworth and finishing short of mid-way, I tried to 'rest & recuperate' for the next race that would be held at Dorney Lake, Eton in a weeks time.

With days off school and not much training I decided to give Eton a miss. Which was a shame as I had been anticipating this event ever since i had entered. However, from what I had heard, the HPU Team raced pretty well. (Well Done Guys).

Back on track?

Blenheim Swim Exit.
Blenheim Swim Start.
Illness over and back on track. With "the big one" (Blenheim Triathlon) soon approaching I felt that I should start to get in some training.




Not a bad swim followed on the day to get onto the bike just missing a chase pack. Sadly I could not catch them so for one of the laps I was alone and the second with one guy who didnt really want to pull his weight. I soon left him on the run after a T2 that was 3 seconds faster than the Brownlee brothers (my claim to fame). On the single lap run course I managed to catch 4 of my competitors to finish 33rd.
